Lee Pro 4000 Progressive Press Kit for .45 ACP
The Lee Pro 4000 represents a significant value proposition in progressive reloading equipment. This is a genuine progressive press—meaning it performs multiple reloading operations simultaneously as the handle cycles—yet it's priced competitively with premium single-stage equipment.
Key Features
Modular Design with No Adjustments The Pro 4000's greatest strength lies in its simplicity. The modular construction allows you to run as much or as little automation as you desire, with zero adjustments required. This makes it equally suitable for the experienced reloader seeking efficiency and the newcomer who wants to learn progressively.
Quick Cartridge Changeover Switch calibers in seconds, including primer size changes. The Breech Lock quick-change system operates in all four press positions without any adjustments—simply swap the colored spline drive bushings and you're ready to reload a different cartridge.
Complete Reloading Solution This kit includes everything needed to begin reloading .45 ACP:
- Lee 3-die carbide set (full length sizing, powder charging, and bullet seating/crimping)
- Universal Case Feeder for consistent case positioning
- Auto-Drum Powder Measure for precise powder charges
- Safety Prime priming system
- Shell plate for .45 ACP
- Four colored spline drive Breech Lock bushings
- Large and small priming arms
- Ergonomic wood grip roller handle
- Hex wrench and built-in tool storage rack
Practical Operational Features The through-ram primer disposal system includes a convenient built-in disposal tube, keeping your workspace clean. The auto case placer ensures consistent case positioning at each station. Once you've made the initial die adjustments into the Breech Lock bushings, the system allows instant caliber changes.
The Bottom Line
The Pro 4000 is an excellent entry point into progressive reloading, offering genuine progressive functionality without the complexity or cost of more elaborate systems. It rewards both careful attention to detail and the desire for increased efficiency.
